United fans might as well book plane tickets now.

Why do they always get the easy draw ffs

Are you being ironic??

Last few draws Nited have got in the CL...
2009
Arsenal (avoided Chelsea, Barca)
Porto (avoided Bayern, Liverpool, Villareal)
Internazionale

2008
Barcelona (avoided Chelsea, Liverpool)
Roma (avoided Arsenal, Schalke, Fenerbahce)
Lyon

They've certainly not ALWAYS got the easiest draw and I don't think they have again in this round. I would have thought that everyone in the draw was praying to get CSKA.

I think at this stage, we shouldn't be too fussed on who we get. All are good sides and we should be considered the favourites for the tournament. I think Benfica are good, they have some fantastic attacking players and they've enjoyed a good season in the league. I fancy our chances but I still remember Simao's goal back in 06.
